About Us

After qualifying at Auckland University with a BE (Civil), Terry went on to do Post Graduate Studies in Business when the original MBA was introduced to N.Z. Terry has a wide range of experience in engineering – as well as structural engineering, Terry has designed and commissioned machinery and “turn-key” production facilities both in NZ and Australia. If Noble lets Terry have any time off, he enjoys riding his Ducati or going fishing.

Henry TruterProject Manager & Director

Henry is a qualified heavy steel fabricator. After serving his apprenticeship with Cape Steel Construction, he has since been exposed to a broad range of engineering – structural steel fabrication, platework, pipework, sheetmetal fabrication, machine building and engineering maintenance. Henry was employed as an apprentice training officer on a De Beers’ mine which has stood him in good stead to oversee the training of a number of apprentices at Noble Engineering (including Apprentice of the Year three times). Out of work hours, Henry enjoys a game of golf – achieving a 6 handicap when living in South Africa and is the 2010 handicap matchplay Champion for Pakuranga Golf Club.

Geoff studied engineering in the 1970s. He then spent some time in the field of industrial chemistry where he held positions in R&D (developing the original in-house painted Colortile for AHI roofing), Manufacturing and Marketing Management. A return to engineering saw Geoff join Noble and work his way into the position of Project Manager. Geoff’s pastimes include yachting (delivering a yacht to the USA and Auckland – Suva race) and maintaining a lifestyle farm in the Bombay Hills.
